- Prayer Request & Exciting News: Shawn and Jheni Solis are a couple many of us know well as they were part of our congregation for several years. They have shared some exciting news about their future. In August of this year, they will be stepping out of their careers and joining a mission team for at least 10 months to help revive our sister fellowship in Bucharest, Romania. This is part of a non-profit missions organization called ReviveEE specifically focused on reviving struggling fellowships in Eastern Europe. Let's be praying for Shawn and Jheni and if you want more information you can reach Jheni through social media at: (https://www.facebook.com/jheni.solis or https://www.instagram.com/jhenirevivee4.0)
- Ebony Washington: Ebony Washington will be going back home on Monday from her cousin's home. She has been recovering from surgery. She will need assistance with meals. If you can help her with providing meals, she would be so thankful for any help. Please continue to pray for her recovery.

Thank You:
- The Wards: Cris and I cannot thank you all enough for all that you’ve done for our family. Not just in these last few weeks, but since moms battle with cancer since 2019. So many have opened their homes when we were traveling back and forth from Apex, so many meals, ladies who have stayed overnight with mom to give me a break, the calls, visits and oh so much that we can’t even tell it all. You all have truly shown us what love is…what family is! I don’t know how I could have managed this journey without you. So whether you gave me a hug or simply prayed from your homes, I want you to know that I felt it all and it held me up in the most difficult moments. So from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. Love, Lucy and Cris Ward
